Setting for ram

[Gstar Nova]

Have up graded to Corsair Pro 32 g of ram. My old ram ran at 1333 mhz the new Pro at 1866 mhz.. Would like to know what setting I need to change for the additional memory i have the new ram running at 1600mhz anything over this will freeze the rig. I copied and pasted the rig specifices not that this much info is needed just lazy. Thanks

does your mobo support the speed?

Enable the XMP profile in the BIOS. If you want to dial the speed in manually, you need to remember to set the timings and voltage. All the information can be found on the side of one of the RAM sticks.

Did you set the XMP profile for it in the BIOS?

If that's not available then you need to look at the RAM timings and voltage and set it according to the RAM specifications.

It's possible that you just bumped up the clock speed without changing the timings or voltage so that's why it doesn't like it.
